Yeah, so I wasn't suggesting anything negative with this question...it's not like he (or anyone) will be pulling themselves up off the ice with their lats -- I thought the whole thing was kind of silly because it has no bearing on how he skates.  I was just curious.  Sorry for clogging up your board with nonsense.

Actually the original “no pull up” controversy was at the 2014 NHL Combine when Sam Bennet registered none.

Despite this epic failure, he was drafted 4th overall by the Flames. However, the no pull up fiasco has had lasting effects through his career as Sam Bennett remains a 3rd liner. Scouts and GMs take note; no pull ups = future problems.

We love nonsense. It's what most of the summer is around here.
